There are effectively three types of charges relating to drink driving cases:
In respect of charge type 1, typical defence cases are post driving alcohol consumption and laced drinks allegations, both of which require calculations to be undertaken by an appropriate expert in an attempt to provide some support to the defendant’s account. If these calculations do not support the defendant’s account, it is extremely unlikely that a “special reasons” case can be presented to the Court. On the other hand, if they do support the defendant’s allegations such a case can be presented to the Court, and it is a matter for the Magistrates to decide if they accept the defence case.
With respect to charge type 2, a defendant might claim that he had no intention of driving his vehicle until a specific time, and as with type 1 cases, calculations can be undertaken to establish whether or not the alcohol level would have been below the legal limit at that specified time.
Type 3 charges relate to either a complete refusal to provide evidential breath samples to an Intoxilyser at a Police Station, or alternatively attempts were made to provide such samples but were unable to do so. The latter scenario might be because the defendant claims it was due to an existing medical condition.
In such cases, the medical condition may or may not have been declared during the MGDD/A procedure at the Police Station, and an expert might be instructed to provide comment on issues such as the procedure, and whether or not a specific medical condition could have been a valid reason for failure to provide and allowed the MGDD/B procedure to take over and provide a blood / urine sample.
Our expert at Forensic Experts has extensive experience in all aspects of these types of cases both in terms of report writing and giving evidence at Court.
